A popular commuter train service in south Cumbria has been cancelled.

The 7.34am service between Lancaster and Barrow-in-Furness, due at 8.39am, will not run this morning.

It is due to a member of the train crew being unavailable.

A replacement bus service will operate instead which is being provided by Travellers Choice.

A Northern Rail spokesperson said: "Your journey may be extended by up to 60 minutes as a result of the road transport alternative."
